Inspirational Watermark

Preface: I wanted code that could display a different string of text whenever the bar changed. Viewing a long string of text on the chart can look messy & crowded, so the string of text is displayed as a tooltip when hoving over the user-customizable watermark text/emoji.

About the Indicator: This is a simple educational script where I hand-picked 60-ish quotes related to trading and included them as tooltips in a watermark indicator. The indicator includes a bank of preset quotes, and calls a random quote upon each bar change. Advantages of a watermark include claiming idea ownership as well as preventing simple copy-paste idea piracy/resale/repost. The trader can fully customize the on-screen watermark text. The trader has the option to display the watermark as either a table or a label. Tables are stationary but easy to crop out, while labels move around but are difficult to crop out. Choose the right watermark type depending on the level of idea ownership & protection you require.

Features: Fully customizable watermark type, text, size, color, and position.

‼ IMPORTANT: Hover over the watermark to read a famous trading quote that changes every candle. Consider moving this indicator to the front of the visual order.
